The CollectA Deluxe Diprotodon Model

The CollectA Diprotodon figure measures over twenty centimetres in length.  It has a shoulder height of approximately twelve centimetres.  CollectA have declared a scale of 1:20 for this model.  Mike from Everything Dinosaur narrates the video review.  He highlights the skull and discusses the dentition of the model.  The fresh wound on the cheek is contrasted with the old scar located on the rump. One is the result of a recent bout of intraspecific competition, whilst the other is a scar from an attack from a Thylacoleo.

The CollectA Diprotodon model has an old scar from a marsupial lion (Thylacoleo) on its rump.

Take a look at Everything Dinosaur’s YouTube channel: Dinosaur Model Video Reviews.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur explained that this video review focused on anatomical details that demonstrate the care and attention taken by CollectA over their prehistoric animal model designs.

He commented:

“We highlight the fused second and third toes on the hind feet.  In addition, we explain why the hind feet are turned inwards and we examine the wrinkled features of this giant marsupial’s snout.  All these little details, perhaps overlooked by other reviewers, highlight the quality of this CollectA figure.”
